We offer competitive, all-inclusive car hire with international and local car rental suppliers. Need Car Hire Around The World?.We can arrange car rental worldwide, but we specialise in these countries:- Barbados, Spain, Turkey, Italy, Jamaica, France, Portugal, Thailand, UK and the USA. We also offer car hire at all the major airports around the world, including Bulgaria, Malaysia, Canada, Germany, Austria, Asutralia, New Zealand and Switzerland.
Why use us?.We offer a mix of local car hire suppliers, as well as searching up to ten major car hire companies, using our FCH Choice system. This means you can book cars at the last minute. We also search the Sixt database for any late offers.
Our top car hire destinations for 2013 These are the top locations at the moment:- Bridgetown(Barbados), Nice, Orlando, Faro, Trapani in Sicily, Bangkok, Phuket, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, Kingston(Jamaica), Bodrum, Samui, Barcelona and Alicante.
Sat Nav/GPS. Sat Nav (or GPS) can be pre-booked, to help you get around in your hire car. You also get to choose your car hire supplier and the type of car. Some suppliers will include the Sat Nav in the rental price. Look for the logo.
FCH Choice System. You can also select your car hire from our FCH Choice range of car hire.This searches up to 10 car rental companies, to get the car you want, at the price you want. This is very useful for those booking car hire at the last minute. However, you only find out the car hire company name after booking, but they will be a well known company.
Who we use. We offer a choice of top quality car rental suppliers such as Hertz, Budget, Avis, and Alamo and Dollar. However, we also let you book with the smaller car hire company, such as Auto Jardim in Portugal, Goldcar in Spain, Maggiore in Italy, Thai Rent a Car in Thailand and Kasina in Malaysia.
Excess Information and Cover. We offer car hire with no excess in Spain and other countries . If an excess does apply, then we will offer you an option to purchase additional insurance with CHARTIS, which will cover any excess liability.
We also off one way rentals in countries like America, Canada, Australia, Spain, Italy and the UK. Fees may apply on one way rentals, so make an obligation fee inquiry and, if the system has not already done so, we will then advise, as sometimes it depends on length of car rental, pickup and drop off location etc.
For example, in Florida and California, there is no way fee, within those states. In Thailand, you need to hire a car for at least three days, if going from Bangkok to, say, Phuket.
Need to hire a 6 to 15 seater SUV or MPV? . Looking for something a bit larger than a car to hire? We also offer a wide range of SUV's that can seat up to 8 people, and MPV's that can seat 15 passengers.
What is Included and THREE Good Reasons to Book with Us
1: All Inclusive Packages and Choice
Being independent allows us to work with multiple suppliers which in turn allows us to offer a wide range of car rental packages, all our quotes includes all mandatory charges as listed below, a few exception do occur for example Mileage is restricted in a few countries such as Australia and Canada. Exceptions are clearly stated in both the supplier package details and in the supplier important information document.
In USA we can offer packages that include free drivers, free tank of petrol, skiing equipment and satellite navigation. In most countries we have at least one partner who will offer zero excess or offer a free additional driver so when making a quote remember to compare not only the price but the supplier package.
2: Best Price and No Hidden Fees
Other brokers may display an attractive price be wary as you go deeper into the booking process extra costs such as booking fees and credit card charges may start appearing. We say no to hidden charges.
- No hidden costs
- No cancellation or amendment charges (minimum 24 hours notice required)
- No credit card charges
- No booking fees
3: Best customer service promise
Whilst we work with national suppliers such as Budget, Sixt and Europcar we also recognize that local suppliers can also provide a first class service and some times better value for money. For example in Portugal we have partnered with Auto Jardim, in Turkey we work with Almira, in Spain we work with Gold Car, Auriga Crown and Automotive.
All our partners have passed our internal service level requirements in additional we carry out regular customer service reviews and act accordingly. We would highlight on exception if your are renting a car in the USA be aware the agents works on commission so even though you have full cover with zero excess and all mandatory charges included the agent will try his best to up sell.
- Condition of fleet and safety equipment
- 24 hour customer hotline with breakdown cover
- Monitor and act on customer feedback
- Wide range of packages (some zero access - see Important Information)
- Ability to quickly amend, cancel and print off your rental voucher online

Rented Toyota Fortuner 2WD in: Phuket Airport
Overall Experience : Good
Supplier Service: (1) Staff's command of Engish was not good, esp. when it would come to a discussion (see #2) (2) On pickup the staff tried to get some extra money from me for the full insurance which in reality was included according to FastCaHire voucher. They said "What's included is not a full insurace, you have to pay to make it a full one, or you drive at own risk". (3) Unblocking of the deposit took 32 days after car's return instead of 7 days as it had been promised by staff. Next time I will use Thai Rent which I used last year with none of the above problems.
Car: Clean, brand new, a more spacious Chevy TrailBlazer Diesel instead of the booked Toyota Fortuner

Rented FFAR Toyota Vigo Double Cab 4WD in: Chiang Mai
Overall Experience : good....Hi. I hired 2 cars of you and Budget was the supplier.The company and the staff were a delight to deal with. The first car had a problem with the ipod connection which i got to work on occasions. I took the car back to Budget and 2 young lads tried to fix it but could not. The second car I hired was not very clean on the outside and the ipod did not work at all. Also the GPS had no mapping data installed and the rear cargo light did not work. I eventually got the ipod to work but only on the second last day by doing a factory reset on the Kenwood system. If a car has these features and you hire them then I would expect that they would work. Other than that the cars went well. Regards
Supplier Service: More than helpful staff

CDW is included in your rental. CDW reduces renters liability in case of damage to the rental vehicle. The renter is still responsible for a non-waivable amount know as an excess or deposit. This excess/deposit amount will vary from country to country and from supplier to supplier.
The excess/deposit is pre authorised against your card ie held but not taken, this is then released on safe return of vehicle. if you are involved in accident that is deemed to be your fault the excess is your maximum liability and the rental company may claim all or part of it from you.
We Offfer Chartis Excess Cover
If you purchase this policy, then decline the car rental company's own excess cover at the counter when the car is collected. There is no need to show your Policy as we cover the Policy Holder, not the rental vehicle. If the car is damaged or stolen, the car rental company will charge your credit card and you claim for full reimbursement on your policy.
This Excess Reimbursement policy covers your excess on damage to the rental vehicle, excess on theft of the rental vehicle and damage to windows/glass, tyres/wheels, the undercarriage and the roof.
